Chapter 416: The Cuckoo's Cry of the Blood Ape (17)

Even the plan to unite Chen Zhuang failed to proceed according to the scheduled steps, not to mention the elimination of the armed forces of Bashu, and now his favorite general is still in a coma, I thought that at this time, I should be in Chengdu, enjoying the movement of victory, but I never thought that what was in front of Meng Shuo was such a cruel reality. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Why did the phoenix bird fall in Chengdu?" Meng said that he kept thinking in his heart, could it be that the phoenix bird favored Bashu and prevented the Qin army from getting involved in Chengdu again. If that's the case, why don't you use your mana to wipe out all the Qin troops? Meng Shuo was puzzled in his heart, could it really be that the way of heaven is impermanent, and mortals cannot speculate? It's really hard to peek into, the mystery of this, but if you want to take Chengdu at the moment, you can only send light soldiers to die.

"Someone!" Meng Shuo thought about it again and again, and shouted loudly.

"The last general will see the general!" A general came straight in from outside the door, only to see the majesty of the coming life, the air is magnificent, Meng said that when he saw that this person came at the right time, he immediately said:

"It's just the right time, come with your ears! I have something to tell! ”

Hearing this, the general hurriedly stepped forward and listened carefully to Meng Shuo's arrangement, Meng Shuo muttered quietly, and the general couldn't stop nodding, and finally Meng Shuo said:

"The city is on fire! Do you ever remember? ”

"Understood! The general can rest assured that although he is uncertain about his success this time, Chengren is determined! The general said generously.

"Good! What I want is this courage, the courage to die and be reborn. Today, above the city, you must have also seen that the drawbridge above the city gate is really a difficult place to do. Although it is easier to open than to close, don't be careless, if the force on both sides is uneven, the suspension bridge will also get stuck in the air and cannot move.

If you can't take the drawbridge, the army outside the city will not be able to enter the city to respond, and when it falls, the situation inside will be dangerous! Meng Shuo still said with some unease.

"The general can rest assured that before going this time, he will be looking for craftsmen in the army to accompany him, and he will be able to help when the time comes!" The general said.

"So good! Let's go down and deal with it! The army was ready to meet outside the city, and as soon as it succeeded, the drawbridge was lowered and the army rushed into the city. Meng said.

"No!" After receiving the order, the general turned and left. The attack of the Qin people, wave after wave, the time left for the Qin people at this time is already a handful, several very sure attacks, have failed to achieve the expected goal, if it is delayed any longer, the reinforcements of Bashu arrive, and then the city and outside the city at the same time to attack, I am afraid that there is a danger of annihilation.

At the same time, Chen Wan returned to the mansion, although it was an established fact that Chen Zhuang was plotting to usurp the throne, but the people in the palace still knew the relationship between Chen Wan and Chen Zhuang, so they naturally did not dare to act without permission. At this moment, the 'wine lady' is lying quietly in the coffin, although this soul has already transformed into a winged bird, but the body left in the world is still a funeral ceremony.

Lying peacefully in the coffin, looking like there is no quarrel with the world, the family has already set up the mourning hall, hung with curtains, everyone is crying on the side, and the huge mansion looks gloomy and terrifying. When the family saw Chen Wan coming back, they took the initiative to greet him, and the housekeeper stepped forward and asked:

"Childe, you're back!"

Chen Wan nodded, and then walked straight to the coffin, a servant had already prepared incense candles, gold foil, Chen Wan according to the number of rites, to the 'wine lady' to pay tribute. When everything was finished, Chen Wan got up and went straight to the coffin of the 'wine lady', and when he got closer, he saw the 'wine lady' in the coffin lying there peacefully and quietly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"What a mysterious woman, when she was dying, she still smiled!" Chen Wan was very puzzled and extremely confused. "Why is it so bizarre when he is dying, such a face!" Chen Wan thought in his heart that he had only seen it with his own eyes, so he naturally knew that the 'wine lady' was killed by his brother.

In this case, why is it such an expression, it is really incomprehensible, Chen Wan looked at the top of the mourning hall, solemn, except for the existence of his brother.

"Has the prime minister ever come back?" Chen Wan questioned the housekeeper beside him.

"Back to the prince, the prime minister has led the nobles of the clan in the court to leave the mansion since earlier today, and he has not returned." The housekeeper said truthfully.

"What? The nobles of the clan in the court were all in the mansion last night? Chen Wan asked curiously.

"Not bad! Precisely! Seeing Chen Wan's expression, the housekeeper thought that he had said something wrong, and said in a very affirmative tone. Chen Wan thought about some things last night, although Du Yu, the king of Shu, was dead, and his brother was also missing, but at the moment, for those clan nobles, he still had no bottom in his heart.

In the palace of the king of Shu, everyone took advantage of their coma to carry themselves to the dragon couch of the king of Shu, such an insidious trick, can be imagined, there will be no other conspiracy, not to mention that people in times of crisis, the decisions they make are unimaginable in ordinary days.

"This is not the place to talk, follow me to the back hall!" Chen Wan took the butler's hand and said.

"Yes!" The housekeeper naturally didn't dare to shirk, knowing that the young man must have something important to discuss. The butler followed Chen Wan through the verandah to a room in the backyard, where Chen Wan instructed his samurai:

"You and the others, guard well and don't let people approach!"

"No!" The accompanying samurai, after hearing the order, hurriedly found their respective defensive positions and looked around solemnly.

In the room where the two entered, Chen Wan opened his mouth and asked:

"What happened in this house last night, tell me in detail!"

As soon as the housekeeper heard that the matter was important, he naturally did not dare to be sloppy in the slightest, and carefully recalled some of the events of last night.

"Last night, when the lights were in charge, the nobles of the clan in the court, as well as many ministers, came to the mansion one after another. At first, I didn't know why I came, but my husband arranged for us to wait for us to not enter and leave without permission. The servants and servants of the house were also told early to go back to the house to rest, and no matter what happened, they were not allowed to come out. As the housekeeper of this house, the villain still needs to serve the adults by his side, so naturally he didn't go back to rest.

At first, the faces of the people were serious and silent, but when the gentleman saw that I was in the room, he took me by the bone and sent me out. It is not clear what happened during this period, but it didn't take long for him to come out of the house, and then quite a few samurai came out of the next room. The housekeeper said this, and Chen Wan quickly interrupted the housekeeper's words.
